I love the fact people are trying to dismiss the fact that MS bought the worlds fourth largest publisher and immediately killed all upcoming multi platform games for it, and is now in the process of buying the worlds largest publisher and acting as if it has no relevance.
MS buying studios has a massive negative impact on games available to people. No amount of Phil Spencer talking rubbish about wanting games to be played elsewhere can change the fact that it is in MS interests to not release games on PlayStation where they can. They immediately stopped development on any games that were going to be on PlayStation that weren't under legal contract.
Massive market consolidation like this has *never* helped consumers in the long run.
